Unlabeled Principal Component Analysis and Matrix Completion

We introduce robust principal component analysis from a data matrix in which the entries of its columns have been corrupted by permutations, termed Unlabeled Principal Component Analysis (UPCA). Using algebraic geometry, we establish that UPCA is a well-de ...

Incorporating Projective Geometry into Deep Learning

Michal Jan Tyszkiewicz

In this thesis we explore the applications of projective geometry, a mathematical theory of the relation between 3D scenes and their 2D images, in modern learning-based computer vision systems. This is an interesting research question which contradicts the ...

Small-angle scattering tensor tomography algorithm for robust reconstruction of complex textures

Marianne Liebi, Manuel Guizar Sicairos

The development of small-angle scattering tensor tomography has enabled the study of anisotropic nanostructures in a volume-resolved manner. It is of great value to have reconstruction methods that can handle many different nanostructural symmetries. For s ...

Algebraic twists of GL(2) automorphic forms

Vignesh Arumugam Nadarajan

In this thesis we consider the problem of estimating the correlation of Hecke eigenvalues of GL2 automorphic forms with a class of functions of algebraic origin defined over finite fields called trace functions. The class of trace functions is vast and inc ...

Arithmetic and geometric deformations of threefolds

Fabio Bernasconi, Stefano Filipazzi

We show that mixed-characteristic and equicharacteristic small deformations of 3-dimensional canonical (resp., terminal) singularities with perfect residue field of characteristic p>5 are canonical (resp., terminal). We discuss applications to arithmetic a ...

On rationally connected varieties over C1 fields of characteristic 0

Marta Pieropan

We use birational geometry to show that the existence of rational points on proper rationally connected varieties over fields of characteristic 0 is a consequence of the existence of rational points on terminal Fano varieties. We discuss several consequenc ...

A Hopf algebra model for Dwyer's tame spaces

Haoqing Wu

In this thesis, we give a modern treatment of Dwyer's tame homotopy theory using the language of

\infty

-categories. We introduce the notion of tame spectra and show it has a concrete algebraic description. We then carry out a study of

Algebra and geometry of link homology Lecture notes from the IHES 2021 Summer School

Oscar Salomon Kivinen

These notes cover the lectures of the first named author at 2021 IHES Summer School on "Enumerative Geometry, Physics and Representation Theory" with additional details and references. They cover the definition of Khovanov-Rozansky triply graded homology, ...

Algebraic Homotopy Interleaving Distance

Nicolas Michel Berkouk

The theory of persistence, which arises from topological data analysis, has been intensively studied in the one-parameter case both theoretically and in its applications. However, its extension to the multi-parameter case raises numerous difficulties, wher ...

Adaptive Gradient Descent without Descent

Konstantin Mishchenko

We present a strikingly simple proof that two rules are sufficient to automate gradient descent: 1) don’t increase the stepsize too fast and 2) don’t overstep the local curvature. No need for functional values, no line search, no information about the func ...

Open and Closed Radicals: Local Geometry around Unpaired Electrons Governs Magic-Angle Spinning Dynamic Nuclear Polarization Performance

Dominik Józef Kubicki, Manuel Cordova, David Lyndon Emsley, Gabriele Stevanato, Yu Rao, Georges Guévork Jean-Jacques Menzildjian, Moreno Lelli

The development of magic-angle spinning dynamic nuclear polarization (MAS DNP) has allowed atomic-level characterization of materials for which conventional solid-state NMR is impractical due to the lack of sensitivity. The rapid progress of MAS DNP has be ...

The uniform symbolic topology property for diagonally F-regular algebras

Javier Alonso Carvajal Rojas

Let k be a field of positive characteristic. Building on the work of the second named author, we define a new class of k-algebras, called diagonally F-regular algebras, for which the so-called Uniform. Symbolic Topology Property (USTP) holds effectively. W ...

A Learned Shape-Adaptive Subsurface Scattering Model

Wenzel Alban Jakob, Delio Aleardo Vicini

Subsurface scattering, in which light refracts into a translucent material to interact with its interior, is the dominant mode of light transport in many types of organic materials. Accounting for this phenomenon is thus crucial for visual realism, but exp ...

Design optimization of a CFRP-aluminum joint for a bioengineering application

John Botsis, Georgios Pappas

Lightweight design demands and complexity requirements of modern high-end structures in aerospace, automotive, sports and bioengineering can be successfully covered by a combination of fiber reinforced polymers (FRPs) with metallic components. Conventional ...

Birational characterization of abelian varieties and ordinary abelian varieties in characteristic p>0

Zsolt Patakfalvi, Lei Zhang

Let k be an algebraically closed field of characteristic p > 0. We give a birational characterization of ordinary abelian varieties over k: a smooth projective variety X is birational to an ordinary abelian variety if and only if kappa(S)(X) = 0 and b(1)(X ...

Adhesive wear mechanisms in the presence of weak interfaces: Insights from an amorphous model system

Jean-François Molinari, Tobias Brink

Engineering wear models are generally empirical and lack connections to the physical processes of debris generation at the nanoscale to microscale. Here, we thus analyze wear particle formation for sliding interfaces in dry contact with full and reduced ad ...

Unique decomposition of homogeneous languages and application to isothetic regions

Nicolas René Jean Ninin

A language is said to be homogeneous when all its words have the same length. Homogeneous languages thus form a monoid under concatenation. It becomes freely commutative under the simultaneous actions of every permutation group G(n) on the collection of ho ...

Arithmetic and geometric structures in cryptography

Benjamin Pierre Charles Wesolowski

We explore a few algebraic and geometric structures, through certain questions posed by modern cryptography. We focus on the cases of discrete logarithms in finite fields of small characteristic, the structure of isogeny graphs of ordinary abelian varietie ...

Optimum Truss Design with Reused Stock Elements

Joseph Jean François Desruelle, Corentin Jean Dominique Fivet, Jan Friedrich Georg Brütting, Gennaro Senatore

This paper proposes the application of optimization techniques to design reticular structures made from a stock of reused elements. Still little explored, the reuse of structural components over multiple service lives has the potential to reduce the enviro ...
